@sunshine45 Back in the 50's and 60's my mother always made up those little bags of candies. Sometimes, I would help her. Back then, no one was concerned about unwrapped candies.

I wonder if those little paper Halloween bags are even made anymore.

Now, I and most people just buy wrapped bars and mini bars and

pass those out.

We give out 2 full size candy bars per Trick or Treater. We let them choose what they want. I also ask the adults that bring around the kids if they want a candy bar. And just to make me feel old, the kids that used to come trick or treating at my house are now bringing their young ones to my door! LOL!
@Rockycoast Wow! You have one of the great stops on the trick or treat circuit. I have also started to see neighborhood "kids" come by wiith their own kids. Hmmmm.... Time flies.
Yes, @PA Mom-mom we love having the kids come to the door. Get to see all the costumes, quick chat with the adults. We give candy to All ages. Does not matter to us how old a T or T is. We usually get 60+ "kids". Though that number has been going down. Trunk or Treats, school parties, and just going to a house development that is easier than a street house all are reducing numbers.
You are a joyful person! An example of being neighborly for 2 generations of kids. Your contribution is important.
Good for you!
